i have a 1995 infiniti I30/nissan maxima with a vq30de engine....well the car started to have a intermittent misfire...no CEL (check engine light) would come when this happens...it only happens when the car is warmed up and driving for a while....i have changed my spark plugs but that didnt do the trick....when the car does misfire i check the diagnose mode on the ecu and it flashes a 0201 code - engine circuit code....but doesnt give me the exact cylinder...could this be a faulty coil plug?
